Best of July

Posted on August 4, 2013 by kayakcameraman

What a wonderful winter it’s been. The thing I love the most about winter is that it produces the most amazing conditions with each morning having its own unique signature. One morning its crystal clear and the Red Chilli is slicing its way through glassy waters. The next morning it’s thick as pea soup and you can’t see five metres in front of you. I hope that you enjoy the variety of shots that comprise my ‘Best of July’ photo journal.

A brilliant transformation, the pastel pinks quickly turned into glossy gold’s.

Sunrise + Sand + Newcastle = Fantastic trip down memory lane

Posted on July 18, 2013 by kayakcameraman

18 July 2013: This morning I decided to go for a walk and take in the sunrise from my old stomping grounds rather than go for a paddle and what a fantastic decision that was. It was so nice to just sit back and enjoy a glorious sunrise from my old surfing spots from Newcastle to Nobbys beach. The pre-dawn tones were sublime and the morning transformation was brilliant. My walk this morning brought back so many memories and reminded how important it is to get out there and enjoy the simple things. I hope that you enjoy this mornings shots as much as I enjoyed photographing them, I had such a beautiful trip down memory lane.

6.16am: New day beginning at Nobbys Beach.

Fog Me!

Posted on July 12, 2013 by kayakcameraman

July 2013: It was like pea soup out there this morning with the visibility getting down to a few metres. Lucky I know my way around or you could find yourself going round in circles. You have to have you wits about you when the conditions are like this, as you have to be extremely aware of the sculls. They row 10 deep from the embankment and move with lighting speed. The last thing you want to do is be T-boned by a scud scull that suddenly appears from the fog.

My Morning Meditation

Posted on July 8, 2013 by kayakcameraman

8 July 2013: I know that I keep saying it, but there it truly no better way to start the day. It’s amazing how you become immersed in natures natural light show. It provides me best headspace and I always return back so calm and at peace. I hope you like this morning’s photos.

Simply Stunning

Posted on June 30, 2013 by kayakcameraman

30 June 2013: Simply Stunning is the only way I can descried my experience on Lake Burley Griffin this morning. Everything was perfect from the moment I set out, the misty pre-dawn soft tones developed into a stunning morning. I know I keep saying it, but this was such beautiful transition. I’m not going to caption anything, instead I would like you to enjoy the photo story that I have put together from this morning’s lovely light show. I’m such a lucky person to be able to experience something so beautiful.

Steely Blue Saturday

Posted on June 29, 2013 by kayakcameraman

29 June 2013: The overcast conditions and drizzly rain couldn’t put a dampener on my morning paddle. Instead it created many amazing steel blue reflections as the sun was trying its best to break through the low heavy clouds. It certainly had an alpine feel about it out there this morning.

The rain held off and everything lined up to produce another nice morning out there on the water.

Floating into Friday

Posted on June 28, 2013 by kayakcameraman

28 June 2013: Marbled skies and calm conditions made for the perfect end to a busy week. At times I had the entire lake to myself so I just floated away care free and enjoyed the reflections. I hope that you have a great weekend and that you like the shots.

Canberra has certainly been in the political spot light this week.

MEGA WOW

25 March 2013: What a sunset, what a afternoon, I was going to use WOW again but I have already used it soooooo many times previously that I am in fear of wearing it out. So tonight sunset can only be described as MEGA WOW!

Lake Burley Griffin and the Canberra skies never cease to amaze me. Yet again I have witnessed another jaw dropping display. It’s natures sky fire!

I had been watching the skies form all afternoon.

Velvet wrapped sledge hammer

24 March 2013: If you were anywhere else in the world you would be raving out it for months! This morning’s setting was so soft and gentle but yet so powerful. Lake Burley Griffin never ceases to amaze me, it just keeps bowling me over and leaves me wanting more. It’s amazing how you can paddle the same place every day and be treated to a totally new experience each time.

Greeting a misty dawn

No need for speed

Posted on March 10, 2013 by kayakcameraman

10 March 2013: There wasn’t any need for speed at all again this morning, the most important thing you have to make sure of is that you sponge in as much as you can; especially when there’s a light show like this. I had the best Sunday morning cruise on LBG this morning with Matt and Tim. What more can you ask for, great conditions, brilliant colours and excellent company……thanks guy’s had a great morning.
